Chains lyrics
by Opus Kink
[Verse 1]
When the shadows of the fathers have receded at last
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
When the doe-eyed stiffs are dust of the past
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
When I crawl back home to some cavernous womb
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
I will close my eyes and dream a face on the loom
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I said I was going, I didn't say when
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
As the doe-eyed mastiffs grow old in their pen
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
As some facile greatness, greatness seeps
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
Into the sadness of my fact as I fall down to sleep
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
My eyes, brother!
[Bridge]
Here I come, walking slow
Heading for what I don't know
But here I come, here I come
Here I come
Here I come, here I come, here I come, here I, here I-
Chains!
[Verse 3]
When the wound closes up and my bedsores are gone
(Little sister with the ball and chain)
I will leave you for the violence I have craved all along
